The Glam Hijabi conservative stylinsg tips

We all want to look our best at all times, but as a Muslim woman I often have difficulties finding an outfit that is both modest and on trend. I often struggle with dresses – the slit might be positioned in an awkward place where it can’t be sewn up, or sometimes the hemline isn’t quite long enough.

I view myself as a representation of my religion, so the way that I dress and present myself to the world affects people’s view of a ‘young Muslim woman’.

My fashion sense has always been something between two extremes – Glamorous Diva or Fashion Disaster. I don’t fall into the category of comfy casuals. Either I go all out with matching outfit, on fleek makeup and high heels or I became a raggedy monochrome disaster with panda eyes and slip ons. But I feel 2017 is the year of breaking the rules.

Latest fashion trend making a buzz across the hijabi downtown is the contemporary long cardigan. How to style and wear to find the true bohemian, Coachella inspired kimonos to Abaya depicting floor length maxi cardigans or oversized chunky knitted woollen ones is the hottest news in the modest blogosphere. This post would be focusing the former and tips on the latter will be up soon.

Traditionally a layering staple, this super popular hijabi street fashion trend is turning heads around at every corner today. Ruling my wardrobe from last winter, these playful gems can be dressed up or down with a blink of an eye. Here are my personal favourite outfits I created with this exciting piece of clothing and my top 3 styling tip.
